Book safe yourself

It's so easy to make your own book safe yourself:

Some things you do not want in a drawer between the socks or, for example, store under the mattress. Have some time ago on the Internet discovered a safe deposit box, and let's face it, which thief takes the time and sees all the books you have standing around at home, especially if you have a whole bookshelf full.

Now some will think, yes it is no longer a secret. But it is, because not every burglar reads the tip through and even if, he does not know who has a book safe and risked not only to search all the books of the apartment.


In addition one takes oneself a book, mine I had doubly and thus could spare it (it should be also rather a nondescript book).

The first 5-6 pages are left untrimmed so it will not be noticeable if someone opened the book.

Then you measure with a ruler as shown on picture 2 a few cm away from the edge, I took 3.5 cm distance to the edge, and now cuts with a utility knife in the vorgmalten lines. This is a slightly longer work, because with a cut can only remove about 10-15 pages. That's what you do then to the last page.

Once you have done that, you get a glue and brush and paint the edges of the book with glue well, the edges on the outside and the edges in the middle where you cut out.

This serves to keep the pages together and keep them from falling apart (the first few pages you did not cut out at the beginning are left without glue), just let it dry, complain with something and finally you can do that Fill the safe and store between the books.
